Cholera and public health in 19th century London

Submit a 2-page double-spaced Think Piece and develop a discussion question for the class. Each Think Piece should provide an integrative analysis of one primary source and one secondary source assigned for that day. You can assume your reader is already knowledgeable about the topic, so be concise; there is no need to over-contextualize the sources youve chosen. To ensure depth over breadth, your Think Piece should be incisive, cite relevant textual or visual evidence from the historical document and the scholarly text, and directly respond to one of the following prompts. In addition, you should give your Think Piece a title something that goes beyond “Think Piece #1” and instead captures the main points of your analysis. At the bottom of your think piece, include one discussion question that encourages students to directly analyze the content, arguments, and analysis presented in the materials assigned for that day. Prompt: Identify a passage, data point, or visual detail in the primary source that you find particularly significant. How do the arguments, theoretical frameworks, or key concepts discussed in the secondary source help you interpret the meaning of this specific piece of historical evidence? (The passage I chose is p. 135-136, where Snow proposes to improve standards of living/hygiene for the poor and also isolate sick travellers: “To provide model lodging houses…And a little medical supervision, and the detention of some of the emigrants for a short time in Liverpool, before their embarcation, would probably have prevented the great mortality which occurred in some of the emigrant ships during their passage to America.”) Secondary Source: Tom Koch, Ch 8, 10 Primary Source: John Snow, “On the Mode of Communication of Cholera” (1854) pgs. 14-18, 38-48, 125-128, 133-137 ONLY
